Just when you think spring might be around the corner, more winter weather. Last year I remember the fruit trees and other things blooming. We then had a freeze that stopped the process and as a result, no fruit. I hope the same thing doesn’t happen again but we shall see. Let’s hope we have seen the last of sub-freezing temperatures.

Montgomery ISD has authorized a bond election for May 9. The election will be for $256.75 million to address the growth of aging facilities, safety, security and technology upgrades district wide. If you are 65 or over, your taxes will not increase. Please consider this very important election concerning our community.

There have been many people coming down with the flu and other sicknesses. If you or a family member have not experienced this, count yourself very lucky. When going out into public, you wonder about catching something bad. Please do all recommended things to prevent sickness.

With the weather cold and rainy, some have turned our attention to working out at the gym. I saw Pastor Ken and wife Kelly Ramey this week really working hard. I sometimes wonder if all this effort is worth it but quickly get back to the work. I’m wondering how many of you that made new year’s resolutions to work out have continued for almost two months now? If so, keep up the good work!

The Del Lago Homeowners Association Board of Directors and Officers recently approved a road work contract to resurface the LaTorretta Blvd. entrance. Work should begin soon and hopefully you can receive advanced notice about directions. The project will require several stages and entering and exiting our community will be slightly altered. The resurfacing should make entering and exiting safer especially when it’s wet.

Have a great week!
